Khalid - Alive Lyrics

Unread texts and missed calls
Told everyone I turned my phone off
Didn't ask for help, and now I'm lost

Life comes in phases
Consequences and mistakes
I'm sorry that it's taken me so long

Mister, mister please let off your powers
Give me half an hour
Or better yet a full one
Only sweet until it all comes sour
But life is what you make it
And then there's more to know

Gatekeeper
Can you show me more to life
Mainly I've been living out of spite
Grim Reaper
Just give me one more night
I need another chance to say goodbye
I shouldn't have to die to feel alive

Here's the thing with disappearing
You can yell and no-one hears ya
Times like this I need an ear

When I finally have so much to say
Wish I could see your face
And do what I had to stop the tears

Sister, sister please know that I'm sorry
I wish it could've stopped me
From falling off that hill
I'm only sweet until it all comes sour
But life is what you make it until it gets too real

Gatekeeper
Can you show me more to life
Mainly I've been living out of spite
Grim Reaper
Just give me one more night
I need another chance to say goodbye
I shouldn't have to die to feel alive
